Dear Saints,
Today as we prayerfully Feast in I Chronicles 7 8 & 9. I’ve been using the imbedded links to help me read the Feast. It is easier if you clink on the link and when the chapter is loaded there is another button that looks like a small speaker click on that and Bible Gateway will read the chapter to you. This is great when we are reading names that are hard to pronounce. "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.” - John 14:26. We all know that the reason for the Feast is to read every word in God’s Word. Lord willing I'll send and post the Feast Monday.
Please see the rest of the feast and Sister Mary’s Corner
Fri, Jan 08, 10, I Chronicles 7, Genealogies. “We have an account of Levi in this chapter. The priests and Levites were more concerned than any other Israelites, to preserve their descent clear, and to be able to prove it; because all the honours and privileges of their office depended upon their descent. Now, the Spirit of God calls ministers to their work, without any limit as to the families they came from; and then, as now, though believers and ministers may be very useful to the church, none but our great High Priest can make atonement for sin, nor can any be accepted but through his atonement.” Henrys Concise
Sat, Jan 09, 10 I Chronicles 8, Genealogies. “– Here is a larger list of Benjamin's tribe. We may suppose that many things in these genealogies, which to us seem difficult, abrupt, and perplexed, were plain and easy at that time, and fully answered the intention for which they were published. Many great and mighty nations then were in being upon earth, and many illustrious men, whose names are now wholly forgotten; while the names of multitudes of the Israel of God are here kept in everlasting remembrance. The memory of the just is blessed.” Henrys Concise
Sun, Jan 10, 10 I Chronicles 9, Genealogies “- This chapter expresses that one end of recording all these genealogies was, to direct the Jews, when they returned out of captivity, with whom to unite, and where to reside. Here is an account of the good state into which the affairs of religion were put, on the return from Babylon. Every one knew his charge. Work is likely to be done well when every one knows the duty of his place, and makes a business of it. God is the God of order. Thus was the temple a figure of the heavenly one, where they rest not day nor night from praising God, ( Revelation 4:8 ) . Blessed be His name, believers there shall, not in turn, but all together, without interruption, praise him night and day: may the Lord make each of us fit for the inheritance of the saints in light.” Henrys Concise
